Meet at the parking lot east of the Wakarusa Museum, not the swim beach. We will take an easy walk around the parking lot and edge of the lake primarily for swallows. Also a good chance for Scissortail Flycatchers and a host of other flycatchers and kingbirds in the area. We will then walk to the beach where we should find several species of gulls, and early shorebirds returning from breeding in Canada. Forster’s, Black and Caspian terns are often here. Buntings, grosbeaks, orioles, even warblers and tanagers are possible as fall migration is under way. Plan to wrap up the field trip by 9 or 9:30 a.m.
